Divine Disciple - Prestige Domain?

Son of Kyuss

First Post
Okay, I've been looking at the Divine Disciple in the Forgotten Realm Book. At first level, the prestige class grants the character an extra domain. I'm assuming the cleric can pick an extra domain from his/her deity's list. What about a priest of Tyr for example, can he/she select a prestige domain like Glory or Mysticim from the Defenders of the Faith instead?

Help me out here.

You only get a new domain that is on your god's list. As for Prestige Domains, well, until Wizards tells us what gods have which ones, it's up to the DM.
 

IMO, the description of prestige domains in Defenders of the Faith (p. 77) would allow for the Divine Disciple to pick up a prestige domain.

These domains are only available to characters entering a prestige class that allows selection of a third domain.

However, Wizards hasn't released any information regarding the Forgotten Realms gods and prestige domain access. On a bright note, some of the domains have easier requirements. Mysticism requires a god of either good or evil alignment. Summoning is allowed to any. You could also use the diety conversion listing in the FRCS for some help, though it won't be official.
 

What they said.

If I were DM, I'd allow Glory, Mysticism, and Summoning to a cleric of Tyr. I suppose a case could be made for Inquisition, as this can be seen as a path to Justice. And if you squint just right, you might even see Community (Justice is always in service of the Community, the larger whole) and Divination (this is more of a stretch, but clerics of Tyr DO get the Knowledge domain) as being acceptable.
 

As a side note, I believe Wizards mentioned that there is going to be a list of prestige domain access in Faiths & Pantheons for the Forgotten Realms gods.
 

Thanks for the feedback on the Divine Disciple question. As for prestige domains for Contemplative, I've been using the coversion table in the Forgotten Realms book to sort out which Faerun gods can receive prestige domains. For example Mystra gets the same access as Boccob gets in Defenders of the Faith.
